Jordan executed two Al-Qaeda prisoners before dawn Wednesday in response to the ISIS killing of pilot Moath Al-Kasasbeh
A statement released by Jordanian military spokesman Mamdouh Al-Amri indicates the possible negotiations in recent weeks between Jordan and ISIS about a prisoner exchange to free al-Kasasbeh took place after his death. Jordan repeatedly asked ISIS to show proof that Al-Kasasbeh was still alive; it’s been said al-Kasasbeh was assassinated on January 3.
Those who doubted the atrocities committed by ISIS now have the proof. Those who doubted Jordan’s power will soon see the proof as well. Al-Kasasbeh’s blood will not be shed in vain.

The Jordanian government has made it clear that they are not taking light the acts of these radical Al-Qaeda militias. The Jordanians have reportedly executed female Al-Qaeda terrorist Sajida al-Rishawi, and Ziyad Al-Karbouli before dawn Wednesday. Military spokesman Al-Ameri said in a statement read on TV:
While the military forces mourn the martyr, they emphasize his blood will not be shed in vain. Our punishment and revenge will be as huge as the loss of the Jordanians.
According to a Jordanian spokesman, Al-Rishawi was executed for her role in a 2005 suicide bombing during a wedding reception in Jordan that killed dozens of innocent citizens. Karbouli was sentenced to death in 2007 after he was convicted of acts of terrorism that killed one person, for plotting terrorist attacks, and for the possession of explosives.
